The centre piece for "The Potting Shed" puzzle was of course a cute little garden shed. Here are some work-in-progress sketches and the final illustrations.

For the rest of the puzzle, I illustrated each element individually before digitally assembling a lively design centred around the garden shed. The contrast between larger objects like the garden gate and beehive to the smaller creepy crawlies hopefully makes for a fun and challenging puzzle with some surprises to be found along the way.
